The Hochberg-O'Donnell fish graph is the unit-distance graph on 23 nodes and 42 edges illustrated above. It is triangle-free
and is the smallest example of a unit-distance
4-chromatic graph with girth 4 listed by Soifer (2016,
p. 445).
However, the Exoo-Ismailescu graphs on
17, 19, and 21 nodes are smaller.
The graph is implemented in the Wolfram
Language as GraphData ["HochbergODonnellFishGraph" ].
